Our Story
Faith. Family. Forever.
Faith. Family. Forever.
We are Ben, Brittney, Levi, and Baby McGee β a blended family held together by God, growing together in Queen Creek, Arizona. We don't do things perfectly. We do them on purpose.
We are Christians who attend Redemption Tempe. We believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and that salvation is through faith alone β not by works, but by grace. All of life is all for Jesus.
Our family didn't look like most from the start β and that's exactly what makes it ours. Ben chose Levi. Brittney chose Ben. And together we're building something that belongs to all of us. No one gets left behind.
Every decision β financial, professional, personal β is made with purpose and a long view. We save with intention. We invest in each other. We don't drift. We build.
Physical fitness and structured nutrition aren't hobbies β they're how we show up fully for each other. A strong family starts with strong individuals.
Ben is completing his BA at ASU. Levi starts 2nd grade in the fall. Baby McGee is due in September. Growth isn't optional in the McGee house β it's the culture.
Camping, pickleball, cooking together, game nights, walks with Phoenix β we don't wait for life to start. We're living it right now. Every ordinary Tuesday counts.
Brittney makes the first move on Bumble. Ben suggests dinner. No response. A double date. She backs out. A hot air balloon ride. Silence. Ben waits. "If it's meant to happen, it will."
Neither planned it. Both ended up at the Buffalo Chip Saloon in Cave Creek, Arizona β the same night, at the same time. Ben saw her walking toward him. It clicked. She said "BEN!" He blurted "BRITTNEYβ¦ YOU ARE SO CUTE!" The rest writes itself.
Home sick, 15 minutes away, Ben took an espresso shot and drove to the Enchanted Christmas Event in Scottsdale to meet a three-year-old. By the end of the night Levi was on his shoulders. Ben drove home knowing exactly where he was supposed to be.
Riverview Park. 5:30 PM. Ring in pocket. Matthias in all black with a camera. Brittney venting about work, completely unaware. Bentley spotted the lake and leapt in. Ben yanked a dripping golden retriever out of the water, got down on one knee, and asked. She said "REALLY⦠REALLY? YES⦠YES!!"
In the mountains of Greer, surrounded by the people they love most, Ben and Brittney became the McGees. Christian ceremony. Mountain air. The beginning of everything.
Temples, beaches, night markets, and the best food of their lives. The McGees' first adventure as husband and wife.
Newlyweds and already expecting. The best gift. Due September 4, 2026. Gender is a beautiful surprise.
Brittney's golden retriever and service animal for 10Β½ years left peacefully. He was there from the beginning β through every season, every hard day, the proposal, all of it. His memorial β
The next chapter. Boy or girl β we have no idea. Either way, this family just keeps getting bigger and better.
